Isolated droplet burning behaviors of fuel mixtures that all share the fully pre-vaporized combustion same “global” Jet-A real are investigated numerically to elucidate effects preferential vaporization. Predictions generated using three such multi-component hydrocarbon (Mixture-1: n-decane/iso-octane/toluene 42.7/33.0/24.3, Mixture-2: n-dodecane/iso-octane/1,3,5 trimethyl benzene 49.0/21.0/30....

some 2-iminothiazolidin-4-ones have been synthesized by the reaction of dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates with thiosemicarbazones. the reaction was performed in the presence of 10 mol% of triphenylphosphine and tetrabutylammonium bromide as a phase transfer catalyst in water as a green solvent. all the synthesized compounds were characterized by their physical and spectral data.

Alkane monooxygenases in Nocardioides sp. strain CF8 were examined at the physiological and genetic levels. Strain CF8 can utilize alkanes ranging in chain length from C(2) to C(16). Butane degradation by butane-grown cells was strongly inhibited by allylthiourea, a copper-selective chelator, while hexane-, octane-, and decane-grown cells showed detectable butane degradation activity in the pre...

Autoignition of iso-octane was examined using a rapid compression facility (RCF) with iso-octane, oxygen, nitrogen, and argon mixtures. The effects of typical homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) conditions on the iso-octane ignition characteristics were studied. Experimental results for ignition delay times, τ ign, were obtained from pressure time-histories. The experiments were cond...

The apparent solubilization of water in hydrocarbon solvents by the addition of 0.1% to 2.0% w/w di-(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate (AOT) has been studied. In n-octane and n-decane, transitions of clear-turbid-clear-turbid were observed with increasing water content, whereas in dodecane, tetradecane, hexadecane, cyclohexane, and toluene only one clear-turbid transition was seen. Separation...

In this study, we investigated the computer colour matching (CCM) of cotton fabrics dyed with reactive dye using the octane-assisted reverse micellar approach. The aim of this study is to evaluate the colour quality and compare the accuracy between CCM forecasting and simulated dyeing produced by conventional water-based dyeing and octane-assisted reverse micellar dyeing. First, the calibration...

4-amino-1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)quinazolin-2-one (3) was prepared by a direct glycosylation of 4-aminoquinazolin-2-one (7) using the Vorbruggen's silylation method and provided exclusively the beta-anomer. This quinazoline nucleoside and its 2',3'-O-isopropylidene derivative (9) did not undergo the coupling reaction with dialkyl disulfides in the presence of tri-n-butylphosphine unless their 4-...

Pelargonic acid is a by-product of the ozonolysis reaction oleic to azelic acid. decarboxylation process removing carboxyl group (-COO-) from pelargonic (C9H18O2) produce n-octane (C8H18) hydrocarbons, which are main hydrocarbons that make up gasoline. The parameter in gasoline octane number. number 15, considered low, while good desired have high To convert straight-chain alkanes and alkenes i...
